Editorial Review:
On the gritty streets of LA, the destinies of four people desperate for connection and redemption are about to collide. Jessica Biel, Ray Liotta, Forest Whitaker and Eddie Redmayne lead a top-notch cast in this powerful thriller about an overwhelmed erotic dancer, a grieving husband who has lost his will to live, a terminally ill ex-con and a pathologically shy mortician. With Kris Kristofferson, Lisa Kudrow and Patrick Swayze in unforgettable supporting roles, this film movingly chronicles the imperfect lives of people teetering on the edge of despair and the miracles that bring them back.

Powder Blue Reviews:
Powder Blue 
2009-12-21 - This movie was a story about how lives intertwine. It reminded me very much of the movie Magnolia. All in all it was pretty good and Jessica Biel was great!
Dull and weird and not worth your time 
2009-12-15 - You would think "How bad can this movie be?" Pretty bad is the answer.
The fault is not with the actors, but possible in the script and certainly with the director.
Portions of the story are extremely compelling, but it never really delivers.
Quantum Christmas Anthology 
2009-12-11 - Much better than other "better" Crash-like films. Humble production values are its own strength. Swayze was perfect. Beil is lovely with clothes. Her nudity is part of the film which has a lot to offer in the total product; despite so called 'critical' 'weaknesses'. LA Blue Xmas Redemption film has legs. It may take decades for this movie to be appreciated.
Blu-ray looks and sounds fine.
Disappointment
2009-11-11 - Disappointment is an understatement. You would think that a movie with this cast of talent would be great. Nope, the only great thing about this movie... is Jessica Biel and her nude body scene.
Jessica Biel Naked 
2009-11-03 - I like watching Jessica Biel naked. But Jessica it's Go Go not... cry cry. Forrest Whitaker irritated the excrement out of me. Jessica Biel is not a good actress but the story with her and Ray Liotta was semi interesting. But still this movie blows... except for Jessica Biel stripping and being naked, something that most hollywood actress's who play strippers can't seem to figure out (strippers take their clothes off).
